spoolsv.exe and svchost.exe errors

[pmessling]

I recently ran a freeware registry cleaner program because my laptop was running slow even after defragmantation. After I did this, I started getting spoolsv.exe ("Oxffbadd11 referenced memory @ Oxffbadd11. The memory could not be read") and svchost.exe ("Ox7c911629 referenced memory @ Oxoo720065. Memory could not be written") application error messages and had to click OK to turn them off. The computer is now terribly slow, the internet will not connect and my DVD rom drive will not start up. CPU usage is at an acceptable level so I know that is not the problem for the lack of speed.

I'm slightly over novice level at this, but not much. Any step- by-steps for me?

Thanks.

First mistake was running a registry cleaner. Have you run disk cleanup?

Yup. You can say that again. He should use System Restore, methinks
(back to a restore point that just predates this problem).

Sounds like the registry cleaner eliminated some needed settings...
If you made a restore point just using the thing, you can get back through
that mechanism.
Otherwise. if you backed up the system state, you restore that.
If you can't do either, somebody else may have some ideas.

So I did a backup with the program. Didn't work. I did system restore several times going back farther and farther before the registry cleaner was installed. That was painful to watch as it was terribly slow. Still the same problem. Virus? Does not come up on scans, though.
